I am also interested in collecting such job descriptions as we begin to more seriously consider options for future staffing of our GIS program. My hunch is that these are difficult positions to fill because of the competitive salaries in private firms and industry compared to academic libraries. Please send such information related to a GIS position to me at the following address: Julia Gelfand Science Library Univ of Calif, Irvine Irvine, CA 92623-9556 [log in to unmask] 949-824-3114 FAX Thank you for your assistance. jg --- End Forwarded Message ---
